Apparently I am mentioned (just once) in the Epstein Files.

(Spoiler: it's a deeply nerdy infosec discussion which name-checks one of my short stories. It doesn't even mention Epstein or Maxwell, let alone the Tangerine Shitgibbon or anything remotely incriminating.)

@cstross "voice commands give access to system level scripting" ... foreshadowing the current age of "prompt injection" there.
I always wondered how some of the "information warfare" type ideas in some sci-fi worked... turns out it's just prompt injection?

@cstross Just as long as they're not applying the Torment Nexus argument to Equoid...

I am somehow feeling disinclined to click on that link. Is this how the web page displays on your side?

@cavyherd Yes, it is indeed the DoJ (I didn't get any active age verification, just a "click here to say you are over 18".)

@draxil No, it really isn't!

Ah, okay. That's at least reasonable, given the context of the web page.

There is one person who was included in the files in a positive way, because he decided to CC Epstein on an email he wrote saying Epstein should be throttled

You would have had your full name and unredacted e-mail address if only you had licenced some free/open source software. (-:

@cstross A mention in the Epstein Files? Guess that means you're famous now 🤪👍

@cstross I was going to reply "Were they discussing how to use Norse death-magic to summon the Aesir?" and now I realized I spent the last 10+ years thinking you wrote Thor Meets Captain America. I hang my head in shame.

As I pointed out in that post, there's a whole bunch of well-known people in the software world in there simply by dint of their names being attached to the copyright licences of various pieces of free/open source softwares. (Hyperlink to document in that post.)
And unlike in other cases, the USADOJ people didn't go through that document and black out the e-mail addresses.

I found it by having the idea of putting #OpenBSD into the search field.
Other people have already found the (redacted!) copy of the Bourne Again shell GNU reference manual and man page that are in there; and I had been wondering what the most bizarre software thing might be in there.
There's also a copy of Kevin Gallagher's instructions for EDT for GNU #emacs in there; with M. Gallagher's e-mail address redacted.

I'm sure Charlie was satisfied with being 'notable enough' to have a Wikipedia page.

@jackwilliambell @cstross Anybody can make a Wikipedia page, but it's something else entirely to get name-dropped in the Fantasy Island Files 😎

Being notable for Wikipedia values of notable: good.

La destra ha affossato definitivamente il voto fuorisede.
Sono nervosi, vedono il consenso del NO aumentare. Hanno paura di perdere.
Uno schiaffo alla democrazia e a 5 milioni di persone, vittime di un vero ricatto: rinunciare a votare o spendere cifre folli ed tante ore di vita per poterlo fare.
Ma non tutto è perduto. Perché puoi votare fuorisede con noi
Vai su www.votofuorisede.it registrati come rappresentante di lista per poter votare al referendum del 22 e 23 marzo nel comune dove abiti.

@reflex @eldersea @davidgerard @theorangetheme @firefoxwebdevs https://stateof.mozilla.org/ has some detail
you have to guard your eyes against the rather horrendous antidesign made the taste for paper
but once you get into the details you also see that moz is >=$1.4b flush
which ..... is a tad beyond fat

@quinta 😁 decisamente...

@lisyarus nice!

@eldersea @davidgerard @theorangetheme @froztbyte @firefoxwebdevs I think Google money made them too fat, they don't need to listen to their actual user base because their salaries get paid no matter what.
-
@paul @firefoxwebdevs to be clear, I'm blocked by his personal account not the work account
but... yeah. it does seem that calling them on their nonsense gets an Amplified Response. in one of the most classic abuser patterns.
lolshrug, nothing new under the sun etc etc

You know how there's always a sucker holding the bag at the end of every con? I feel like Firefox is that, for AI.
It's like with anything hot, by the time your boomer relative says it, it's dead and has been for years, but the carcass is still at Bernie's and miraculously sitting up.
